Hollywood is notoriously hard on “women of a certain age,” but these 15 septuagenarians are defying Tinseltown timelines (albeit with some nip and tuck) and savoring their second acts.

Still starring on stage and screen, this powerhouse group has been putting 30-somethings to shame with their high energy and positive outlooks.

Find out which celebs have entered their 7th decade – and how they’re aging gracefully – in this Lifescript gallery...

Cher

Birthdate: May 20, 1946Best known for: Being one half the “Sonny and Cher” singing duo

“The Goddess of Pop” is still rocking pasties in her 70s, winning the 2017 Billboard Music Award, headlining her own Las Vegas show, working on her 26th album and writing a Broadway musical about her life (in which she might star).

Yet even after a 50-year career, Cher is not letting age slow her down.

Having admitted to a nose job years ago, she told the Today show in 2015 that she didn’t know how to accept aging.

“I don’t want to either,” she said. “But I don’t really know how to. I look in the mirror and I see this old lady looking back at me.”

Birthdate: October 4, 1946Best known for: Playing Janet Weiss in The Rocky Horror Picture Show

A Hollywood staple for decades, Sarandon – who’s currently playing Bette Davis in the cable TV series Feud – still oozes cool and sexy; it’s no wonder she has always dated younger men, most notably her former beau of 23 years, Tim Robbins.

She has admitted to having liposuction under her chin and eyes, yet she doesn’t take aging too seriously.

“It has never crossed my mind that my age would hold me back from anything. … What makes you beautiful is being ‘awake’ in your life and being confident. And that becomes easier as you get older and care less what others think,” she told Daily Mail in 2016.

Her other secret? “Laugh and have sex – those are really important, too.”

Goldie Hawn

Birthday: November 21, 1945Best known for: Being a young cast member in Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In

After a 15-year career hiatus, Hawn returned to the big screen in 2017’s Snatched, zany and bubbly as ever.

The longtime actress – who received her first Academy Award and Golden Globe at the age of 24 for Cactus Flower – has been the subject of plastic surgery speculation. But she doesn’t try to fight the Hollywood inevitable.

“You think you’re going to prove to Hollywood when you hit 45 that you’re still a sexy, viable object? No. There’s a certain reality,” she told Harper’s Bazaar in 2017.

Yet Hawn loves to celebrate birthdays. “It’s all how you make it,” she told Porter Magazine in 2015. “It’s wonderful to know you’re aging, because that means you’re still on the planet, right?”

Tina Turner

Birthdate: November 26, 1939Best known for: Being a high-energy singer and performer

She’s been breaking every “aging” rule since her 60s.

Now, in her 7th decade, Turner – who’s known for shapely legs and high-energy performances – is overseeing rehearsals for TINA, The Musical – a stage show opening in 2018 in London, based on her life.

In 2016, she told South Africa’s Woman & Home magazine: “You can’t get hung up on age or beauty; then you’re always chasing something you’ll never get back. … My greatest beauty secret is being happy with myself.”

“You could not pay me to be young again. … After I turned 60, I began to understand who I was, and I became young again. Now I’m in sight of my 80th birthday and feeling pretty good about life!” she told Daily Mail in 2016.

Birthdate: July 1, 1945Best known for: Being the lead singer of Blondie

This bombshell “blondie” just released a new album in 2017, and has no plans to wallow in the growing number of candles on her birthday cake.

On the heels of her latest record with Blondie, Pollinator, Harry got real with Glamour about getting older: “When it comes to age and beauty, there’s always been a double standard for women.”

“Let’s face it, the pressure is on,” Harry, who has admitted to having a facelift, told the magazine. “But if that little voice in the back of your head is worrying about getting old, well, there’s no way you’re not going to get old. … You have to say, ‘Hey. I’m in good health, and I appreciate myself.’”

Birthdate: July 26, 1945Best known for: Being a theater and film actress

She famously played the Queen of England, a calendar girl, and a real-life role of Dame. And this busy actress has no plans to slow down. She’s still churning out movies (most recently 2016’s Collateral Beauty, and 2018’s The Nutcrackerand the Four Realms and Winchester).

Mirren hasn’t copped to any “help,” but isn’t against it either. Still, she embraces her sexy septuagenarian reputation: “The best thing about being over 70, is being over 70. … It’s fascinating and wonderful and emotional. So you just have to find a way of negotiating getting old psychologically and physically,” she told AARP in 2016.

Raquel Welch

Birthdate: September 5, 1940Best known for: Her doe-skin bikini in One Million Years B.C.

They said she was aging beautifully in her 50s. Then again in her 60s.

Now, at 70-plus, Welch is still a sultry sex symbol whose beauty transcends every decade.

Yet Welch, who’s in the 2017 comedy How to Be a Latin Lover, and currently stars in TV’s Date My Dad, admitted in her 2010 memoir that “to be an aging sex symbol is not exactly a picnic.”

“I want [people] to stop being scared of it, because it’s just another chapter in life. It’s not time for you to give up. Don’t keep comparing yourself.”

Sally Field

Birthdate: November 6, 1946Best known for: Playing Sister Bertrille in TV’s The Flying Nun

Field has been on screen since her teens, starting as TV’s surfer girl Gidget. She has also piled up Golden Globe nominations alongside 2 Academy Award trophies. And the actress hasn’t slowed down, even after 70. In fact, she spent the first year of that decade performing an entire season of The Glass Menagerie on Broadway.

She’s also refreshingly honest about aging in Hollywood.

“I’m an old woman; 70 is old. And that’s OK,” the actress, who suffers from osteoporosis and has been a spokesperson for the condition, told NPR in 2016. “I’ve gathered strength behind my years. I owned them, I've earned them, I've deserved them, I have a right to have them.

“I don't like my neck. I don't like a lot of things. But it’s OK,” she said.

Blythe Danner

Birthdate: February 3, 1943Best known for: Playing Dina Byrnes in the film Meet the Parents

With grey hair and ageless skin (the actress has admitted to Botox and fillers in the past), life has been sweet to the aging Danner.

The actress, grandmother and mom to Gwyneth Paltrow landed her first-ever leading movie role at age 72 in I’ll See You in My Dreams.

“It’s a terrible thing when people feel, ‘Oh, I’m older, I’m entitled to just sit here and not do anything.’ It’s a shame, because you’re dying within. There’s so much still to learn,” she told Good Housekeeping in 2016.

Whatever it is she’s doing (the buzz is plastic surgery), Somers looks as great as she claims to feel.

In 2015, she told Huffpost Live that being 70 is fascinating: “There’s a new way to age. … What I have at this stage of my life is wisdom like I’ve never had before – and perspective. That’s one thing no young person can have or buy – you have to earn it.”

This former princess and current philanthropist has a thing for the ’70s; not only was she a staple at Studio 54, but she’s as timeless as ever in her 7th decade.

In her 2014 memoir, The Woman I Wanted to Be, von Furstenberg, who has said she doesn’t see plastic surgery in her future, wrote that she feels “more beautiful than I have ever felt because my life is full, my children and grandchildren are my pride, and so is the body of my work. I cannot pretend I am younger than I am.”

“I truly feel that I have lived so fully that I should be twice my age,” she said.

Stockard Channing

Birthday: February 13, 1944Best known for: Playing Betty Rizzo in Grease

This veteran actress is no stranger to defying age (or plastic surgery buzz). After all, she was 33 when she played high school bad girl Rizzo in Grease.

And Channing has been true to that character for more than 40 decades. In 2011, she told Out magazine she’s doing “everything I f-ing can” to stay in great shape.

The 13-time Emmy Award nominee and 7-time Tony Award nominee also has no plans to retire, as seen from her recent roles on Britain’s Urban Myths (2017), where she played Elizabeth Taylor, and The Good Wife (2012-16).

“You get to a certain age, and you start playing a lot of mothers,” she told Out. “I happen to like this variety thing. As long as I can keep doing that, I'll be very happy.”
